Anxiety states are commonly encountered in general practice. In the
past they have often been treated with tranquillizers, but because
of the risk of side effects many health case workers would prefer
to use an effective non-pharmacological therapy. Managing Anxiety
sets out an alternative, psychological approach, one which has been
shown to work as well as drug therapy while being no more
expensive. The approach involves teaching self-help skills to
anxious individuals so that they can take control of their own
anxiety symptoms. This revised edition contains new sections for
therapist guidance on post-traumatic stress disorder and 'executive
stress' or 'burnout', and self-help sections on assertiveness and
time management. The new edition is well presented with many case
studies. It takes account of all the developments in psychological
care of patients which have occurred in the five years since the
publication of the first edition. This practical guide has been
developed for both psychologists and non-psychologists, and is
suitable for trainees and fully qualified health and occupational
professionals alike.
In October 2016, Udo Kischka suffered a severe stroke. A large
intra-cerebral bleed, a bleed deep in the right side of his brain.
He was not a typical stroke patient: Professor Kischka was a
neurologist and specialist in stroke rehabilitation. Like all
stroke patients, he embarked on a journey of recovery. In his case,
it was a re-education in his field of expertise. When he uttered
the words, 'This is a life changing event' to his wife a few hours
after the stroke, he had no idea just how life changing it would be
or that there would be still be a good life to be had. Written by
experts on both sides of the fence - a stroke victim who is a
stroke specialist, and a psychologist who helps others and now has
to help herself and her family - this is a personal and brutally
honest story of a family's survival. This accessible and relatable
book provides insight and realistic hope about what might lie ahead
following a stroke, as well as offering both practical and
emotional support.

We all worry about stuff in our lives, but some of us may find
ourselves worrying excessively, even about those things completely
beyond our control. Or we may simply find that worrying thoughts
are dominating our daily life and are destroying our quality of
life. Of course we all have worries, but rather than labelling
yourself a 'worry wart' or 'worrier', you can overcome your chronic
anxiety and start to lead a happier, more fulfilling life.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, on which this self-help book is
based, is a recognised, effective treatment for anxiety. It will
help you to recognise and challenge your negative and anxious
thoughts, and change any behaviour which may have inadvertently
kept your anxiety going, and move towards a more worry-free future.
